Obama Enacts Executive Action to Allow Some DREAMers to Serve in Military

On the day Attorney General Eric Holder announced his resignation, President Barack Obama enacted an executive action on Thursday to allow certain DREAMers to serve in the military and be put on an expedited path to citizenship.

Obama vowed to hold off on broad executive amnesty that would also potentially grant temporary work permits to millions of illegal immigrants until after the midterm elections to help Senate Democrats retain the Senate. According to the Military Times, this executive action will expand MAVNI (Military Accessions in the National Interest) "to target foreign nationals with high-demand skills, mostly rare foreign language expertise, or specialized health care training."

The program, which admits foreigners with specialized medical or language skills, will now be "open to immigrants without a proper visa if they came to the U.S. with their parents before age 16" and have been approved for Obama's 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

The MAVNI program "is capped at 1,500 recruits per year," and Obama's executive action "may be the first phase of a broader government-wide effort to ease pressure on immigrants and create new paths to citizenship," according to the Times, because "after entering military service, foreigners are eligible for expedited U.S. citizenship." The Times noted that "since 2001, more than 92,000 foreign-born service members have become citizens while serving in uniform."(continued)

We naturalize 100,000 mexicans every year. This is just dumb to grant this to the illegals.

So let me see if I understand this correctly.. He hands pink slips to active duty while serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.. drawing the military down.. Kicking people out.

Then he allows illegals to join.

People who don't have any loyalty to the U.S. Broke many different laws. This guy is destroying the military.

Did you ever read the original Dream Act? Or did you read the one with adjustments Republicans agreed to?

What would YOU do with these children that had no choice in being here? I think granting them citizenship if they become military or college is a pretty smart practice. They are already here...The child didn't cross the boarder lol............Our greed allowed them to so we could have them work for us under citizen wage. Only some deny it, both parties had a chance to end it.
